According to
Hasbro, July is shaping up to be another big month for Marvel Legends reveals . July of course is the month we normally have
San Diego Comic Con which this year once again will be held virtually. It's unknown if
Hasbro will be doing anything special for SDCC this year or perhaps will hold another big
Hasbro-Pulse event later on in the year. Either way it is looking very much like July will be the month for
Fantastic Four reveals. We expect Hasbro will get around to officially announcing their
Fantastic Four themed
Haslab project. Our money is still on that being a new
Galactus figure, however that is totally a guess at this point.
We also expect to get the full reveal for Hasbro's new
Marvel Legends Fantastic Four Retro Cardback wave.
Hasbro previously teased a new
Johnny Storm/Human Torch figure coming in his navy blue classic outfit, and indications are that we will also get the other FF team members in those outfits as well. So that leaves two more
Fantastic Four themed figures for the 6-figure Retro wave which will NOT have a Build-A-Figure. The folks at
Fwoosh has posted this list for the wave:
Fantastic Four November 2021
F0171 Assortment UPC: 5010993842780
Retro Carded No BaF
F3018 Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic) 5010993842605
F0350 Sue Storm (Invisible Woman) 5010993842551
F0351 Johnny Storm (Human Torch) 5010993842544
F0352 Ben Grimm (The Thing) 5010993842520
F0353 Hxxxxxxxxx 5010993842537
F0354 Pxxxxxxxxx 5010993842599
Here we can see they are hinting one of the final two figures has a name starting with a
H and the other a
P. In May the folks at
Marvel Legends Mιxico Oficial went further to report that the final two figures will be of
High Evolutionary and
Psycho-Man.
Fantastic Four November 2021
F0171 Assortment UPC: 5010993842780
Retro Carded No BaF
F3018 Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic) 5010993842605
F0350 Sue Storm (Invisible Woman) 5010993842551
F0351 Johnny Storm (Human Torch) 5010993842544
F0352 Ben Grimm (The Thing) 5010993842520
F0353 High Evolutionary 5010993842537
F0354 Psycho-Man 5010993842599
Now of course none of these have been officially confirmed by
Hasbro, so we should continue to treat this entire list as rumor until Hasbro officially reveals them next month, but I have been doing some additional checking of my own and will say I wouldn't be reporting this to you if I didn't have a strong degree of confidence in the legitimacy of this list.
The coolest thing about these final two figures is that neither has ever been done as a 6" Marvel Legends figure before so it's nice to see (assuming this list is accurate) that Hasbro is giving us brand new characters in the line. High Evolutionary has the added bonus of not only fitting well on your Fantastic Four shelf, but also on your X-Men and Avengers shelves.
It's been a pretty crazy year so far with all the
Marvel Legends figures Hasbro has in the pipeline, and from all indications they aren't planning on slowing down anytime soon. I am starting to see indications that 2022 could be an even bigger year than 2021.
